Wherever you are
Filed Under Life
There is a common excuse we tend to make when we need to get our lives right with God. Or when we need to turn to Him because of the struggles we are going through. We figure we will go to God when we get things in our life right. When we get the sin taken care of. When we get the new job, when we find the one, when we pass the class - then we will have time to turn the burdens over to God. We will have the time to repent and turn from our sin and focus on God, just another day, just another day…
The LORD is near to the brokenhearted. And saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18
Wherever you are right now in your life, God wants you to call out to Him. The brokenhearted can be healed and the crushed can be lifted. The storm can be calmed and the sin forgiven. Whatever you are doing, God can help you, you just need to call to Him. Enter His temple with a heart of repentance and a humble spirit, knowing that He can make it right.
When we have fallen so far, it is difficult to reach for God, but our constant prayer should be to draw close to Him. The closer we are to God, the less we have to reach when we go through a difficult struggle. When we are close to God, we know the path to walk. Whether we be lost in sin, going through a trial, or dealing with a decision, God will direct us.
Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” Isaiah 30:21
Which way are you walking? Are you listening to the voice of God? Are you so lost that you feel God cannot find you? He will come to you wherever you are, you simply must call out to Him. We go through so many of life’s pitfalls alone when we could simply call to God and He would be right with us. When He is next to us, we sometimes refuse to humble ourselves to His help. When we need an open door, He provides one. When we need the warm embrace, He provides it. When we need to be lead, He provides a direction. When we need forgiveness, He provides it. When we need healing, He provides the touch.
Cannot find God? Let Him come to you, simply call to Him!
